双酚A对斑马鱼成鱼肝脏功能基因转录调控的影响

运用实时定量即时聚合链式反应RT-PCR方法,研究了双酚A对斑马鱼成鱼肝脏的功能基因转录水平的影响。结果显示,28 d半静水暴露以后,FGF8A和STAU 2 表现出传统的正剂量—效应关系,CLDN 1和CALCA的表达为倒剂量—抑制效应关系,SP 4基因在15 μg·L^-1 双酚A时表现为显著抑制效应,但是在150 和1 500 μg·L^-1却表现为显著的诱导效应。 试验进一步探讨了这些表达异常的基因在双酚A干扰去除后能否自我调节和修复。结果显示,CLDN 1能恢复到正常表达水平,而其他4个基因在低剂量组却维持原来的高毒性作用水平甚至表现出更高的毒性作用。研究证明双酚A对斑马鱼成鱼肝脏的基因转录调控具有一定的非单调剂量—效应作用。     

微囊藻毒素-LR对雄性黑斑蛙精巢中CYP46A1,CYP2H2和CYP2G1 mRNA表达的影响

微囊藻毒素-LR(microcystin-LR,MC-LR)是分布最广泛和毒性最强的一种微囊藻毒素,对水生动物造成潜在的健康威胁。大量科学研究证实,动物体中的细胞色素P450酶(CYP)参与内源性物质及外源毒性物质的代谢过程。为探究两栖动物生殖器官中的CYP酶对低剂量MC-LR生殖毒效应的调节作用,选择雄性黑斑蛙(Rana nigromaculata)为受试动物,采用静态置换法和体内暴露方法,分别暴露于0、0.1、1和10μg·L~(-1)MC-LR溶液0、7和14 d;用实时荧光定量PCR方法检测精巢中CYP46A1、CYP2H2和CYP2G1的mRNA表达水平。结果表明,暴露于0.1、1和10μg·L~(-1)MC-LR 14 d后,CYP46A1在mRNA水平分别上调了1.86、1.65和1.22倍,CYP2H2在mRNA水平分别上调了4.62、1.80和1.04倍,CYP2G1的mRNA水平分别上调了2.63、2.16和1.56倍。MC-LR在1μg·L~(-1)剂量下暴露7 d后,CYP46A1、CYP2H2和CYP2G1 mRNA水平均出现显著上调。上述研究表明,微囊藻毒素对黑斑蛙精巢3种CYP基因在mRNA水平上都存在低剂量刺激效应。低剂量MC-LR能诱导黑斑蛙精巢中CYP46A1转录水平变化,促进胆固醇转化为24S-羟化胆固醇,潜在破坏雄性黑斑蛙精巢中胆固醇水平的平衡; MC-LR也能够诱导精巢中CYP2H2和CYP2G1转录水平的变化,潜在调节CYP2H2和CYP2G1转录水平,进而影响MC-LR的代谢作用。     

HgCl2对斜生栅藻（Scenedesmus obliquus）生理生化特性的影响(Effects of HgCl2 on Physiological and Biochemical Characteristics of Scenedesmus obliquus)

为探讨汞对藻类的毒性效应,以斜生栅藻(Scenedesmus obliquus)为实验材料,检测了HgCl2对藻细胞数目、光合色素含量、超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)活性、丙二醛(MDA)含量等生化指标的影响.结果表明,各暴露组(0.2～1.5mg·L-1)HgCl2对斜生栅藻的生长均有抑制作用,随HgCl2暴露浓度的增大,藻细胞密度逐渐降低,HgCl2对斜生栅藻的48、72、96hEC50值分别为1.194、1.113、0.986mg·L-1.随着HgCl2暴露浓度的升高(0.01～1.5mg·L-1),叶绿素a、b及类胡萝卜素等光合色素含量均呈逐渐降低趋势;SOD活性表现为先激活后抑制;MDA含量则显著增加(p<0.05,p<0.01).     

双酚A对斑马鱼幼鱼神经递质和神经行为的影响

环境浓度水平下双酚A(BPA)暴露对生物体的毒性效应受到广泛关注。以早期发育阶段斑马鱼为模型,评价了环境浓度下BPA暴露对斑马鱼幼鱼运动行为的影响,并探讨了可能的作用机制。将斑马鱼胚胎暴露于不同浓度BPA(0、1、3、10和30"g·L-1)后,斑马鱼幼鱼的整体平均运动速率显著降低。低浓度组幼鱼在持续光照条件下的运动行为显著降低,同时5-羟色胺受体(htr1a)的转录水平增加十分显著,表明BPA可能通过5-羟色胺受体对斑马鱼的运动行为产生影响。而高浓度组幼鱼在第2个黑暗刺激周期的活动过度受到抑制,同时多巴胺受体(d1r)的转录水平显著降低,表明BPA可能通过多巴胺受体影响斑马鱼对外界刺激的响应。HPLC分析结果表明,5-羟色胺和多巴胺神经递质含量在所有浓度组均显著升高。进一步分析与早期神经发育(wnt1,shha)、单胺类递质神经元分化(lmx1a,nr4a2和syn2a)以及递质合成(tph1b,th)相关的基因和蛋白水平,发现神经递质含量的升高可能是由于BPA促进了斑马鱼胚胎早期神经发育和单胺类递质神经元的分化。综上,环境浓度下BPA暴露即可对斑马鱼的运行行为产生影响,提示BPA污染很可能对生态环境及人体健康产生潜在的危害。     

三苯基锡和五氯酚胁迫斑马鱼生理生化的影响

以斑马鱼(Brachy danio rerio)作为受试生物,分析不同暴露浓度、不同暴露时间三苯基锡(TPT)、五氯酚(PCP)对斑马鱼生理生化指标的影响,在0,1.05,2.09,4.18,6.27,8.36μg·L-1的TPT和0,5.01,10.02,20.04,40.08,80.16μg·L-1的PCP暴露下,...     

水体酸化条件下Cu(II)对斑马鱼胚胎的毒性效应

为评价由酸雨、酸性矿山排水等环境污染导致的水体酸化及水体重金属联合作用对水生生物的生态毒性效应,研究了不同pH值(pH=3、4、5、6、7和7.8)条件下Cu2+对斑马鱼胚胎发育的影响。结果表明,酸性水体及Cu2+单一存在时,酸对斑马鱼胚胎24h半数效应浓度值EC50为pH=3.65,Cu2+(pH=7.8)对斑马鱼胚胎24h-EC50为0.267mg·L-1;当水体酸化及水体中的Cu2+共存时,较低的pH对Cu2+的生物毒性起协同作用,表现为随溶液pH的降低,各浓度Cu2+对斑马鱼胚胎的24h凝结率显著增高(P24h致死率=0.001),而斑马鱼胚胎96h孵化率显著降低(P96h孵化率=0.002),且不同浓度的Cu2+之间的生物毒性效应存在显著性差异(P24h致死率=0.0321;P96h孵化率=0.0028)。这说明酸性水体和Cu2+都显著影响斑马鱼胚胎的发育,且Cu2+在酸性水体中对斑马鱼胚胎的毒性显著增强。因此,在受重金属Cu2+污染的地区,如同时受到酸雨或酸性矿山排水等较低pH值和Cu2+的双重胁迫,较低浓度的Cu2+就能够对水生生物的生殖发育及水生生态系统产生严重的影响和危害。     

不同温度条件下呋喃丹对赤子爱胜蚓体内蛋白含量以及SOD和AChE活性的影响

采用滤纸法研究不同温度下呋喃丹对赤子爱胜蚓(Eisenia foetida)死亡率、体内蛋白含量以及超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)和乙酰胆碱酯酶(AChE)活性的影响.研究发现,10 ℃下,蚯蚓体内蛋白含量在30 mg·L-1呋喃丹处理时略有升高,而后随时间和浓度的升高,蛋白含量则随之降低;各浓度处理组的SOD活性值基本上高于对照组,48和72 h的SOD活性比24 h时平均提高220%和148%.时间和浓度对蛋白含量和SOD活性的影响达到极显著(P＜0.01).而在20 ℃下,蚯蚓体内蛋白含量和SOD活性变化规律均不明显,表明当温度升高时,呋喃丹对蚯蚓生理生化指标的作用更趋于复杂.在2种温度下,农药对蚯蚓体内AChE活性都具有明显抑制作用,AChE活性在处理时段内的最高降低率为90%.结果表明:温度对蚯蚓死亡率、蛋白含量以及SOD和AChE活性影响显著,AChE可以作为一个稳定的生物监测指标用于评价农药对土壤环境的污染影响.     

垃圾渗滤液对斑马鱼的毒性及抗氧化酶活性的影响

在室内模拟条件下,以斑马鱼（Daniorerio）为受试动物,探讨生活垃圾渗滤液对斑马鱼的急性毒性及对其鱼鳃、肝脏中的过氧化物歧化酶（SOD）、还原型谷胱甘肽（GSI-I）及Na＋,K＋-ATP酶等3种酶的影响。结果表明,垃圾渗滤液对斑马鱼的96hLC50为13．2％。垃圾渗滤液对斑马鱼的急性毒性相对较高,斑马鱼对垃圾渗滤液毒性的敏感性强。慢性毒性测试结果显示,垃圾渗滤液对斑马鱼肝脏中SOD活性和GSH质量分数的诱导作用明显,对Na＋,K＋-ATP酶活性影响并不明显;垃圾渗滤液对斑马鱼鱼鳃中SOD活性影响显著（P〈0．05）。除Na＋,K＋-ATP酶外,斑马鱼的抗氧化防御相关生物标志物对渗滤液染毒胁迫具有相对较高的敏感性,SOD和GSH均可用作垃圾渗滤液慢性胁迫的有效生物标志物。     

硫酸锰废渣浸出液对斑马鱼的毒性及抗氧化酶活性的影响

已有研究表明,堆积在湘西花垣河河岸的硫酸锰废渣含有多种重金属,可能是导致花垣河河水和沉积物重金属污染的主要原因.为了评价硫酸锰废渣的潜在生态风险和对水生动物的毒性,本研究分析了硫酸锰废渣浸出液中的主要重金属成分,用漫出液对斑马鱼进行了急性毒性实验,观察在急性胁迫下斑马鱼的体征变化,测定了斑马鱼在亚致死浓度下的生化指标的...     

双酚A对斑马鱼精巢性激素生成酶基因表达的影响

为了解环境雌激素对鱼类精巢发育的影响,将成年雄性斑马鱼(Danio rerio)暴露于不同浓度双酚A(0、500、1 000、2 000、4 000μg·L-1)下21 d,并在此基础上,进一步研究了暴露在相同浓度(BPA2 000μg·L-1)不同暴露时间下各基因表达的动力学模式。用荧光定量PCR(qRT-PCR)方法检测试验鱼精巢性激素合成相关细胞色素P450酶类基因(CYP17、CYP11B和CYP19A)以及雌、雄激素受体和促卵泡激素受体(ERα、ERβ、AR和FSHR)基因的表达,用常规组织学方法研究试验鱼精巢结构的变化。结果表明,BPA促进了精巢内源雌激素合成相关酶类基因CYP19A和雌激素受体ERαmRNA、ERβmRNA的表达,且BPA浓度为2 000μg·L-1时3者的表达量显著上调,同时随着暴露时间的延长,具有明显的时间累积效应。1 000μg·L-1BPA可导致斑马鱼精巢CYP17 mRNA的表达量显著下调,BPA2 000μg·L-1暴露12 d引起了CYP11B mRNA表达下调,而随着暴露时间的延长有所回升,但它对精巢AR mRNA的表达却无明显影响。同时,BPA 500μg·L-1引起了FSHR基因的显著上调,在时间动态学上,呈上升趋势。在组织学上,2 000μg·L-1BPA引起斑马鱼精巢生精小管内精子浓缩严重,精原细胞(Sg)和精母细胞(PS和SS)数目都有所减少,BPA 4 000μg·L-1组斑马鱼精巢退化。因此,BPA可诱导精巢内源雌激素合成和雌激素受体的表达,提高雌激素效应,通过抑制CYP17基因的表达,一定程度上抑制雄激素的合成,从而引起斑马鱼精巢组织的破坏。同时,据实验数据推测,雄激素的下调可能启动了下丘脑-垂体-性腺(HPG)轴的负反馈调节机制,而此作用机制还有待进一步研究。     

丙烯酰胺对斑马鱼各器官的毒性作用及生殖细胞的DNA损伤

在我国,聚丙烯酰胺(PAM)主要应用于石油开采,其长期暴露于环境中可以降解成有毒的丙烯酰胺(AM)。为探究在降解过程中AM的毒性作用,选择斑马鱼作为受试动物,进行AM长期毒性暴露40 d,考察了对斑马鱼的肝脏、脑组织、心脏、腮等器官的影响情况。结果表明:在2.04 mg·L~(-1)、6.12 mg·L~(-1)和18.36 mg·L~(-1)暴露浓度下,形态学观察斑马鱼的鳃丝,鳃小片和鳃细胞有严重的受损现象;随着浓度的升高斑马鱼肝脏、脑组织和心脏中MDA含量、LDH活力的升高,SDH和Na+-K+-ATPase活力的降低,均对其肝脏、脑组织和心脏造成氧化损伤作用,从而影响了斑马鱼体内细胞能量代谢过程。采用彗星试验检测斑马鱼的生殖腺细胞DNA损伤,结果显示暴露于浓度为2.04 mg·L~(-1)~18.36 mg·L~(-1)的AM后,斑马鱼的DNA损伤均表现为显著差异(P0.01)。上述研究结果均确定了AM对斑马鱼的毒性效应并可造成其生殖腺细胞的DNA损伤。     

地质封存CO_2泄漏对蚯蚓的毒性效应

二氧化碳捕集与封存技术(CO_2 capture and storage, CCS)是当前国际上公认的CO_2减排的有效措施,但封存在地下的CO_2仍然因为各种不稳定因素存在泄漏风险,对土壤环境及土壤生态系统产生威胁。选择赤子爱胜蚓为研究对象,通过模拟高浓度CO_2对蚯蚓形态与生理变化的影响,探究CCS泄漏所产生的土壤高浓度CO_2对蚯蚓的毒性效应。研究表明,土壤高浓度CO_2使蚯蚓出现生殖环带肿大、尾部串珠以及断尾等外部形态变化,皮肤和刚毛受到损伤并且表皮发生褶皱等现象;随着CO_2浓度的增加以及暴露时间的延长,蚯蚓的死亡率不断增加,土壤高浓度CO_2对蚯蚓的7 d和14 d半致死浓度分别为26.39%和17.78%;蚯蚓体腔细胞溶酶体中性红保留时间(NRRT)减少。因此,蚯蚓有望作为监测CO_2泄漏的指示生物,NRRT可作为识别CO_2泄漏的敏感指标。     

nano-TiO_2与1,2,4-TCB联合作用对斑马鱼鳃组织结构及染色体损伤研究

采用组织病理切片法、微核及彗星试验研究nano-TiO_2和1,2,4-TCB联合染毒对斑马鱼鳃组织结构、细胞微核率及DNA损伤的毒性效应。结果表明,单独nano-TiO_2暴露不会导致斑马鱼鳃组织结构损伤,也不会引起明显的微核及染色体损伤。1,2,4-TCB(≥10 mg·L~(-1))会引起鳃组织和细胞染色体的损伤。nano-TiO_2与1,2,4-TCB联合作用会加重斑马鱼的鳃组织结构损伤,出现鳃小片排列严重紊乱,表皮细胞断失严重,鳃小片上皮细胞坏死脱落,鳃丝结构模糊等症状。两者联合作用会引起鳃细胞微核率增加和彗星细胞率的增加,呈现一定的剂量-效应关系,且两者间的联合作用具有协同作用。对彗星试验的尾部DNA百分比、尾长及尾距的分析发现,与对照组和单独作用相比,两者联合作用对彗星指标均有显著增强作用,这表明两者联合作用对染色体的损伤属于非特定片段损伤。     

Simultaneous removal of NOx and chlorobenzene on V2O5/TiO2 granular catalyst: Kinetic study and performance prediction

• A V₂O₅/TiO₂ granular catalyst for simultaneous removal of NO and chlorobenzene. • Catalyst synthesized by vanadyl acetylacetonate showed good activity and stability. • The kinetic model was established and the synergetic activity was predicted. • Both chlorobenzene oxidation and SCR of NO follow pseudo-first-order kinetics. • The work is of much value to design of multi-pollutants emission control system. The synergetic abatement of multi-pollutants is one of the development trends of flue gas pollution control technology, which is still in the initial stage and facing many challenges. We developed a V₂O₅/TiO₂ granular catalyst and established the kinetic model for the simultaneous removal of NO and chlorobenzene (i.e., an important precursor of dioxins). The granular catalyst synthesized using vanadyl acetylacetonate precursor showed good synergistic catalytic performance and stability. Although the SCR reaction of NO and the oxidation reaction of chlorobenzene mutually inhibited, the reaction order of each reaction was not considerably affected, and the pseudo-first-order reaction kinetics was still followed. The performance prediction of this work is of much value to the understanding and reasonable design of a catalytic system for multi-pollutants (i.e., NO and dioxins) emission control.     

SO2和NO2胁迫对红花荷等植物光合生理影响及抗性评价

为探讨红花荷(Rhodoleia championii)等12种园林植物抗SO2和NO2污染能力,以1～2年生实生苗为材料,通过人工气候室的盆栽实验,研究不同SO2和NO2混合气体胁迫对园林植物苗木光合参数和相对叶绿素含量的影响,并利用隶属函数法及系统聚类分析法对其抗SO2和NO2污染能力进行了综合评价。结果表明,植物叶片净光合速率、气孔导度、蒸腾速率和相对叶绿素含量基本上随着SO2和NO2胁迫的加剧而逐渐降低,但水分利用效率受净光合速率和蒸腾速率变化的影响规律不明显。综合隶属函数和聚类分析可知,红花荷和红千层(Callistemon rigidus)抗污染能力强,杜鹃红山茶(Camellia azalea)和粉红羊蹄甲(Bauhinia blakeana)抗污染能力较强,红花银桦(Grevillea robusta)和无忧树(Saraca divespierre)抗污染能力中等,大叶紫薇(Lagerstroemia speciosa)、金花风铃木(Tabebuia chrysantha)和腊肠树(Cassia fistula)抗污染能力较弱,而本地火焰木(Spathodea nilotica)、复羽叶栾树(Koelreuteria bipinnata)和樱花(Prunus serrulata)抗污染能力弱。研究结果为火电厂、陶瓷厂、钢铁厂、石化厂等重度酸污染地区植物选择提供参考。     

Highly effective visible-photocatalytic hydrogen evolution and simultaneous organic pollutant degradation over an urchin-like oxygen-doped MoS2/ZnIn2S4 composite

● An urchin-like OMS/ZIS composite was fabricated by a facile solvothermal method. ● The OMS/ZIS exhibits superior photocatalytic H₂ evolution for organics degradation. ● A probable mechanism of dual-functional photocatalysis was proposed in detail. ● This work provides an inspiration for rational design of dual-functional catalysts. Achieving hydrogen production and simultaneous decomposition of organic pollutants through dual-functional photocatalytic reactions has received increasing attention due to the environmentally friendly and cost-effective characteristics of this approach. In this work, an urchin-like oxygen-doped MoS₂/ZnIn₂S₄ (OMS/ZIS) composite was fabricated for the first time using a simple solvothermal method. The unique microstructure with abundant active sites and fast charge transfer channels further shortened the charge migration distance and compressed carrier recombination. The obtained composite exhibited an efficient H₂ evolution reaction rate of 12.8 mmol/g/h under visible light, which was nearly times higher than pristine ZnIn₂S₄, and the apparent quantum efficiency was 14.9% (420 nm). The results of the simultaneous photocatalytic H₂ evolution and organic pollutant decomposition test were satisfactory, resulting in decomposition efficiencies of resorcinol, tetracycline, and bisphenol A that reached 41.5%, 63.5%, and 53.0% after 4 h, respectively, and the highest H₂ evolution rate was 672.7 μmol/g/h for bisphenol A. Furthermore, natural organic matter (NOM) abundantly found in actual water was adopted as an electron donor for H production under simulated sunlight irradiation, indicating the promising practicability of simultaneous hydrogen evolution and NOM decomposition. Moreover, the mechanisms of the dual-purpose photocatalytic reactions, as well as the synergistic effect between the molecular structures of the organic pollutants and the corresponding adsorption behavior on the photocatalyst surface were illustrated in detail. These obtained results may serve as an inspiration for the rational design of highly efficient, dual-functional photocatalysts in the future.     

磷酸活化活性炭对Cu2+的吸附特征研究

寻求廉价而高效的吸附材料为目的,研究向日葵秸杆基活性炭对铜离子的吸附性能。以向日葵秸秆为原料,经H3PO4活化制备活性炭,通过静态实验研究了其对水溶液中Cu2+的吸附特性,考察了溶液pH值、吸附温度和离子强度对吸附的影响,探讨了吸附热力学、动力学和吸附机理。结果表明:溶液pH值为5～6时活性炭对Cu2+的去除效果最好;向50 mL 170 mg·L-1的溶液中加入0.5 g活性炭,温度为45℃、吸附时间为1 h时,对Cu2+的去除率可达98.3%;Langmuir方程能更好地描述Cu2+在活性炭上的等温吸附特征,静态吸附容量可达41.03 mg·g-1;吸附过程符合拟二级动力学过程,且为吸热的化学吸附过程,膜扩散为速率控制步骤,离子交换可能在吸附过程中起了重要作用。     

Hydroxyl radical intensified Cu2O NPs/H2O2 process in ceramic membrane reactor for degradation on DMAc wastewater from polymeric membrane manufacturer

• Cu₂O NPs/H₂O₂ Fenton process was intensified by membrane dispersion. • DMAc removal was enhanced to 98% for initial DMAc of 14000 mg/L. • Analyzed time-resolved degradation pathway of DMAc under ·OH attack. High-concentration industrial wastewater containing N,N-dimethylacetamide (DMAc) from polymeric membrane manufacturer was degraded in Cu₂O NPs/H₂O₂ Fenton process. In the membrane-assisted Fenton process DMAc removal rate was up to 98% with 120 min which was increased by 23% over the batch reactor. It was found that ·OH quench time was extended by 20 min and the maximum ·OH productivity was notably 88.7% higher at 40 min. The degradation reaction rate constant was enhanced by 2.2 times with membrane dispersion (k = 0.0349 min⁻¹). DMAc initial concentration (C₀) and H₂O₂ flux (J_p) had major influence on mass transfer and kinetics, meanwhile, membrane pore size (r_p) and length (L_m) also affected the reaction rate. The intensified radical yield, fast mass transfer and nanoparticles high activity all contributed to improve pollutant degradation efficiency. Time-resolved DMAc degradation pathway was analyzed as hydroxylation, demethylation and oxidation leading to the final products of CO₂, H₂O and NO₃⁻ (rather than NH₃ from biodegradation). Continuous process was operated in the dual-membrane configuration with in situ reaction and separation. After five cycling tests, DMAc removal was all above 95% for the initial [DMAc]₀ = 14,000 mg/L in wastewater and stability of the catalyst and the membrane maintained well.     

Tuning the catalytic selectivity in electrochemical CO2 reduction on copper oxide-derived nanomaterials

Electrochemical conversion of CO₂ to hydrocarbons can relieve both environmental and energy stresses. However, electrocatalysts for this reaction usually suffer from a poor product selectivity and a large overpotential. Here we report that tunable catalytic selectivity for hydrocarbon formation could be achieved on Cu nanomaterials with different morphologies. By tuning the electrochemical parameters, either Cu oxide nanowires or nanoneedles were fabricated and then electrochemically reduced to the corresponding Cu nanomaterials. The Cu nanowires preferred the formation of C₂H₄, while the Cu nanoneedles favored the production of more CH₄, rather than C₂H₄. Our work provides a facile synthetic strategy for preparing Cu-based nanomaterials to achieve selective CO₂ reduction.
